Chapter 27 - Rainy Battle

The rain had soaked through my clothes, and the cold air chilled me to the bone as I faced the three Admirals. The bridge was destroyed, and the railing was barely hanging on. Water was everywhere, pooling in the gaps and gushing through the broken planks. I was surrounded, with no escape.

"You are a maniac who will be stopped for justice," Aello said, summoning a water spirit with a flick of her wrist.

"Justice?" I sneered. "You know nothing of justice."

Crius transformed into a giant mecha golem war lord, while Chrysaor drew his katana, and a storm began to brew overhead. I could feel their energy building, all in harmony, preparing for an attack.

I adopted a fighting stance, ready for whatever was coming my way. I had the curse of Achilles and the power of the dead. I was stronger than each Admiral alone, but the three of them together were a formidable force.

They attacked in perfect synchronisation, but I was ready. I moved with abnormal reflexes, dodging their attacks and striking back with my unique fighting style that my father had taught me.

Aello summoned water spirits and hurled them at me with incredible speed and agility, but I dodged them all. Crius transformed into a giant mecha golem war lord, pounding at me with his mud and steel fists, but I withstood his blows with my curse of Achilles.

Chrysaor was fast and fierce, striking with his katana and controlling the storm, but I held my own. I revealed my dark aura, which protected me from their attacks, and I pounded back at them with all my might.

The battle was intense, but I refused to back down. The Admirals wanted to stall me, but I wouldn't let them. I needed to continue my way through Helios Fortress.

Our weapons clashed again and again, and the sound of metal echoed throughout the bridge. The rain continued to pour down, but I barely felt it. All I could focus on was defeating the Admirals.

Suddenly, Aello summoned a giant wave of water and sent it towards me. I quickly jumped to the side, narrowly avoiding the attack. But as I landed, I felt the ground beneath me turn to mud.

Crius had planted mud throughout the battlefield in an attempt to catch me off guard and take me out with one shot. I could feel my feet sinking into the mud, but I refused to let it stop me.

I charged towards the Admirals, my sword raised high. But Chrysaor had other plans. He summoned a bolt of lightning and sent it towards me. I quickly dodged to the side, but as I did, Aello attacked me with her ice spear.

I barely had time to react as the spear pierced through my shoulder. I could feel the coldness of the ice spreading through my body, but I refused to back down. I pulled the spear out of my shoulder and continued my assault.

The Admirals continued to fight in perfect synchronisation, their attacks coming one after the other. But I could feel my own strength growing with each blow I landed. My abnormal reflexes allowed me to dodge attacks that would have been fatal to others, and my unique fighting style allowed me to strike back with deadly precision.

As we continued to fight, I felt a dark aura begin to emanate from me. It was a power I had never felt before, but it protected me from the attacks of the Admirals.

I was not tired. It was the opposite. Thanks to the new power I got from underworld my stamina held on.

With my new power, I was able to hold my ground against the Admirals. Their attacks no longer fazed me, and I continued to strike back with all my might.

The battle raged on, with neither side gaining the upper hand. But I knew I couldn't let this fight drag on any longer. I needed to continue my way through Helios Fortress and reach my ultimate goal.

With a mighty roar, I charged towards the Admirals once more, my sword held high. And as I struck them with all my might, I knew that I would emerge victorious.

Clang

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared out of nowhere and blocked my attack with ease. I couldn't believe my eyes. This person was lightning fast and had rescued the Admirals from my wrath.

Instinctively, I jumped back, keeping my distance. I had no idea who this person was, but I knew they were dangerous.

The dark figure turned to face me and spoke with a cool, menacing voice. "You've caused enough trouble, hero. I am Admiral Alastor, and I won't let you proceed any further."

I felt a chill run down my spine at his words. This man was a force to be reckoned with, and he had just joined the fray against me. I couldn't let him stop me, but I knew this wouldn't be an easy fight.
